3. Liberty Media own all the stuff I like.

All the learning channels, and Sci-fi. I wonder if they've done anything horrible.

9. Heh, I was just laughing at myself

because I consider their fare to be too bland to waste my time on and I have no interest in sports.

Some boycotts are just dead easy.
